#1 Series 1 grille opening

Post by Richie5529 » Mon Jan 15, 2024 12:32 pm

Howdy! From Texas. I am looking for some info on a series 1 bonnet, I am repairing the front of the bonnet due to someone running into something. I am looking for any info that can help me to metalwork it back close to original.
Are all series 1 openings the same size?
Is there a place that I could get some profile gauges to help with shape?
Anything could help!
Thanks for you help in advance.

Perhaps the local Jaguar Club could help out.
